I'm not a fan of the cream either, but the rest of the car looks amazing!

love it - hate it reactions, they are the best kind... :D

Rims are 18x8 35ET Ultralite's in bronze. after fitting the wheels handling of the car is a bit strange on the back end now though... and I reckon if I go over any big bumps they will hit the wheel arch...

and heres a strange thing with my car, when changing to brembos the front left hub carrier + caliper was pre-facelift and the right front hub carrier + caliper was post-facelift?? certainly kept me guessing... :inquisiti

so I did need all bits from Rhys after all!

yeah tien superwagon coilovers, give a good ride.. originally my car sat way too high at the front end, I think it looked higher than other VR4's (maybe linked with the different hub carriers?)

anyway, I lowered the front end by 36mm and the back by 28mm.

main issue is ground clearance as even with a fairly healthy arch clearance the underside is so close to the ground.

lowest part on the car at the front is now the new CUSCO bar.. must be about 80-90mm from the ground.

lowest part at the back is the Fujitsubo exhaust bracket just after the Diff.... must be 50mm from the deck So dont even try to go over those ravioli speed bumps.... (I did the day after fitting the exhaust.. *CRUNCH* oops/pan, no damage luckily)
